Ok, the GS soap version of this situation is something like this:
Older, hot woman Nathalie feels the pangs of her imminent retirement. 4th place at Sochi! Thank god those overrated North American kids are gone. This World title is MINE!!!! MINE!!!!!!! If I can only get rid of I&K! I've seen how he looks at me. I know he wants me. Elena and Morozov's public displays of affection are infuriating Nikita. He slams his fists into the lockers. Nathalie appears, "Why so glum kiddo?" Nikita in a rage, "None of your business!" Nathalie, undeterred, steps closer to Nikita, "She isn't worth your trouble. I mean, Morozov? You may be young but I know Morozov isn't half the man you are..." Nikita and Nathalie kiss. As Nathalie rises from the bed, Nikita pulls her closer to him and she resists, "No... you want to make Elena jealous? Get the blonde Sinitsina. That will show her." Nathalie dresses and walks away thinking she just planted the seeds of destruction in I&K. Third in the SD!?!?!?! Nathalie throws her skates against the wall, barely missing Fabian. "Woman!!!! What's wrong with you?! I just have to put up with you for a few more days. Thank god, Shpilband has you now. I can't take this anymore!"
